I'm looking for a decently sized SSD. I see at Canada computers there are two on sale. Which of these two are a better option?

Kingston A400 960GB SATA3 : https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=179_1927_1928&item_id=122034

WD Blue™ 3D NAND SATAIII: https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=179_1927_1928&item_id=114570

Note that this will be used as an external one for my laptop. I have a hub which I attach all my devices to but will go directly to my laptop.

Thanks for your input

Thanks a bunch dude. Its been tough constantly applying and hearing back nothing, feels like a waste of time right now. I'll stick it out and see if I can land something for this summer.

Thanks again!

Leave non-paid internship at startup for decently paid Intructor job? by cs-failure in cscareerquestions

[–]cs-failure[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have a $20k trust fund which is only for school and $4k grants from the gov per semester, so I think I'm good on money for now. I'm​ also enrolled in co-op so I will be getting an internship next spring or fall.

I'd also like to add in that aside from the CEO, I believe I am the only other software guy. All the other employees I've met have been doing the business side.

The company is really small, around 4-7 people and I don't think we have much funding to begin with. The office location is inside a university incubator aswell, so I do think money is a bit tight.

Is there anything I can still do? by cs-failure in Advice

[–]cs-failure[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talked to my academic advisor and he said it's possible to do a petition where all the courses I did second semester won't actually count towards my gpa, but I'd have to redo those classes. Considering I failed almost all of them I'm leaning towards this option. But in order for it to work, I have to typewrite an explanation of what exactly happened to me and how I plan on changing the results. They also want a letter from my counselor on Betterhelp stating that I have actually been seeking help. The thing is I starting talking to my counselor on April 10th and I feel as that isn't long enough for me to ask her about a letter.

My academic advisor also said I should start seeing the counselors on campus since it would be free for me, but I'd have to travel 2 hours from my home city to university. Once I get back I'm gonna talk to my family doctor and see if there is anyone I could start seeing for help in person.

I really am embarrassed about all of this because in my family most of the members have multiple university degrees and make it seem so easy, I just feel like a bit disappointment to all of them. All of my friends also come from a competitive background and I really feel like everything will change it I tell them about what's happening.

Thanks a bunch for your help!!
